I need the activty to create a PendingIntent for the Notification. I suspect there is a way to create a dummy Intent that doesn't refer to the activity, but I'd prefer that clicking the notification brings you back to the Activity.
But on that subject - how do you create a Notification with no (or an empty) PendingIntent ?
